About
The character "羁" finds its origins in the traditional form "羈", a composite construct that integrates elements suggestive of a net and leather, initially representing a physical bridle or halter used to secure horses. This tangible referent naturally extended its meaning to encompass verbs expressing detention or restraint, gradually broadening into abstract realms where it came to describe psychological or social entanglements, such as lingering attachments or restrictive duties. Over its historical development, the character's structural composition has been altered, yet its core concept of confinement persists, demonstrating a semantic shift from material instruments of control to figurative expressions of constraint.
